THE MURRAY OPERA HOUSE,
Work to Begin To-Day On a Site
Purchased Yesterday.

After some delays the contract was
closed yesterday for the purchase of a
site for the Murray opera house. Owing
to the law requiring alleys eight feet in
width Oh both sides of all such struct-
ures, the site at first selected-the Muir
ray property on Eighth street-had to
be given up, as it was too small
piece OF land. The land, for the pur-
chase of which the contract was COM
pleted yesterday, is a strip 100 feet in
width, running the entire depth of the
block from Eighth to Ninth street, be-
tween Cedar and Minnesota streets.
1t lies fifty feet to the east of Cedar.
The deal was made by !Sackett, Virgins
d Wood and Mr.. Lewis, who handled
the property, the price being $50, 600, of
which $4,000 was paid down. Under
the terms of the contract, work was to
be begun at once, and accordingly the
first stone for the foundations will be
taken there this morning, when the
work of excavation will be begun.

A Washington correspondent writes: "At
the dinner given last week by Secretary
and the Misses Bayard to the President and
Mrs Cleveland there were no floral decora-
tons on the table. This is q custom which
has never been observed by the Bayards.
The table was laid with the family silver
and china. Mrs. Cleveland wore long
dress Of pink brocade, pompadour corsage
without sleeves, white gloves reaching
above the elbow, and diamond necklace.
The Misses Bayard wore white satin draped
with white tulle. Mrs. Ingalls, wore black
velvet, Mrs. Carlisle pink moire, Mrs. Fair
cl.ild white brocaded satin, and Mrs. Endi-
colt white satin and black velvet. Neither
Senator Ingalls, nor MIR. Lamar appeared In
the least discomposed at meeting each
other at dinner, Notwithstanding tie very
strong language against Mr.. Lamar's con-
flrmattoD so recently used by the senator.
In fact, 1t Is so common In Washington for
the bitterest OF political opponents to meet
on social occasions or even to be
warm personal friends that nothing is
thought Of 1t here. 1t Is, however, per-
petual source of wonderment to Europeans,
who cannot understand 1t at all. Last
winter all the legation people held up theiI
hands In holy horror when, on the evening
Of an afternoon that he had from his seat ir
the Senate criticised the President in ths
severest terms, Mr.. Edmunds went up to tht
White House to dinner"
